Top opportunity

Improve the touchdown

Arrival Touchdown

There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

Flight narrative

Departing from Reichelsheim Airfield (EDFB), the PC21 aircraft began its takeoff roll on runway 36, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 114 kt in 846 meters, which accounted for 69% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 14 °C and a gentle headwind of 8 kt from a direction of 352 °, resulting in a negligible crosswind component.

As the aircraft transitioned into the enroute phase, it began its initial climb from an altitude of 1,295 ft above sea level (asl) to 2,505 ft asl, achieving a vertical gain of 1,210 ft in just 2 minutes while covering a horizontal distance of 8 nm. The climb was initiated overhead Echzell, a location in the German state of Hessen. Subsequently, the aircraft began its enroute descent from 2,524 ft asl to 548 ft asl, a decrease of 1,976 ft in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nm. This descent phase was initiated overhead Friedberg, another location in Hessen.

Upon approaching the destination airfield, the PC21 aircraft began its final approach to runway 36 from the south, maintaining a heading of 356.0 ° at an altitude of 137 ft above ground level (agl) and a distance of 1 nm from the runway threshold. The aircraft touched down before the threshold, with a touchdown speed of 82 kt, which was within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown rate was somewhat heavy at -707 fpm. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, deviating 4.5 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 227 meters, accounting for 18% of the available runway length. Following touchdown, the aircraft's rollout alignment was very good, indicating a high degree of control and stability during the landing phase. The total flight distance was 15 nm, and the aircraft consumed 14 kg of fuel during the 5-minute flight.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 36 at EDFB Reichelsheim Airfield from the south was conducted with a heading of 356.0° at 1 nautical mile and 137 feet above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a stable and controlled descent. The aircraft touched down before the threshold, indicating a slightly aggressive approach. The touchdown speed of 82 knots was within the acceptable range, demonstrating good control and management of the aircraft's energy.

However, the touchdown rate was heavy at -707 feet per minute, which may have been a result of the aircraft's high rate of descent. This could be attributed to the pilot's decision to touch down early, which may have led to a higher-than-desired touchdown rate. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.5 meters from the centreline, which may have been a result of the crosswind or the pilot's judgment during the approach.

The rollout was executed well, with the aircraft maintaining a very good alignment with the centreline. The total landing distance of 227 meters, which accounted for 18% of the runway, was acceptable. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 13°C and a headwind of 7 knots, were favorable for the landing. Overall, the landing was scored 92.4%, indicating a good performance, but with room for improvement in terms of approach and touchdown characteristics.
